But they also knew that following the main road would most likely lead them to the government office.
Now it seems the trip was definitely worthwhile.
He immediately roared.
They charged in.
A face-to-face meeting,
The few guards who rushed forward were cut down by Li Kui.
Xu Wei was, after all, a martial artist.
Seeing Li Kui charging towards them,
He didn't run away either.
He picked up his sword and went to meet them.
Like most military generals,
A waist knife is still more suitable.
The sword is merely an ornament.
After only a few exchanges, he was cut down to the ground by Li Kui.
Li Kui beheaded Xu Wei with a single axe stroke.
Seeing that Qin Ming and Yingniang had already killed and scattered the remaining people in the yamen, he said to Yingniang,
"You're the woman who throws stones, aren't you?"
Yingniang frowned and said, "It is indeed Yingniang."
Li Kui was carrying a severed head.
"Who is this guy?"
"Xu Wei, the commander-in-chief of Xiangyuan."
Li Kui's yellow eyebrows shot up.
"I thought it was some kind of imperial brother-in-law,"
"Take me to kill that imperial brother-in-law."
Yingniang listened intently.
"Wu Li is staying in the military camp,"
"The fighting is loudest over there,"
"It's probably too late to go now."
Li Kui said, "Then let's go kill the new guy, Sun something-or-other."
Yingniang pointed north,
"They're stationed there,"
"Judging from the sounds, they've probably already started fighting."
The commotion on Sun Wu's side was even greater than that on the military camp.
There weren't many sounds of fighting.
But instead, there was a burst of explosions.
It was clear that troops were using fire and mines to clear the way.
Qin Ming laughed and said, "This is how you use fire and thunder,"
"I'm afraid the fight won't last long,"
"Let's wait for Prince Liang right here in this government office."
Li Kui heard the explosion getting farther and farther away.
Helpless, he could only walk into the yamen with Qin Ming.
On the other side, Sun Wu was awakened.
He then hurriedly led his personal guards to the streets to reorganize the troops.
The troops he brought were all stationed nearby.
The soldiers who ran out from both sides saw that the general's flag had been raised in the street.
They all gathered behind Sunwu.
Soon, thousands of people gathered in the streets.
Sun Wu was just about to lead his troops to seize the south gate.
A troop of soldiers has already arrived.
What followed were a series of fiery bombs.
A fleeting flash of light,
A huge explosion
A single fireball can wipe out everyone standing within a radius of several feet.
The power of the Great Liang Fire Thunder had already spread throughout the land.
However, Sun Wu saw that Wu Li had kept the Liang army outside Xiangyuan City for many days.
They then felt that the power of the fire and thunder had been exaggerated.
Little did they know that Wu Li relied on her advantageous location.
The soldiers stood on the hilltop.
To block the advance of the troops below.
It would be difficult for Daliang to throw fire bombs onto the mountain.
Meanwhile, the archers on the mountain could freely shoot down the soldiers below.
But once they got to the city...
The specially selected soldiers with strong arms could throw fire bombs at a distance no less than that of ordinary archers.
But its power is much greater.
Hundreds were killed or injured in the bombing.
The troops gathered in the streets scattered and fled.
Sun Wu saw that it wasn't the leader.
He had no choice but to flee towards the north gate with his personal guards.
The warhorses were already terrified by the sounds of fire and thunder.
Sun Wu and his group had no choice but to leave the city on foot.
Without warhorses for transportation,
Many soldiers ran ahead of them.
When fleeing for their lives,
Those ahead of them wouldn't stop either.
Let Sun Wu go first.
Sun Wu could only order his men to gather the troops behind him.
They followed the routed soldiers in front of them, fleeing northwards.
They fled for several miles in one breath.
Then they suddenly heard the sounds of fighting coming from ahead.
"Oh no, there's an ambush ahead."
"Run away."
"Run away."
The routed soldiers saw that there were still ambushes at Daliang.
I have no mind to fight.
They immediately scattered and fled.
Sun Wu saw that the few thousand soldiers he had just gathered had mostly scattered again.
They dared not advance and fight.
He led the remaining troops and fled down the side path.
However, lying in ambush outside the city were Shi Wengong's ten thousand troops.
In order to chase the general with warhorses
Shi Wengong did not use fire or thunder.
Upon seeing the routed soldiers,
He led his troops out to fight.
Just a moment,
Shi Wengong then slaughtered his way through the routed soldiers in front of him.
However, they didn't capture any major generals.
They fought their way through.
Look behind them, the routed soldiers are scattering and fleeing.
They had no choice but to divide their forces to pursue and kill them.
Compared to the scattered and fleeing soldiers,
Sun Wu's group of over a thousand men, however, made a much bigger commotion.
Chapter 1670 Persuading to Surrender
Shi Wengong reined in his horse.
After listening for a while,
He then led his men straight towards Sun Wu and his group.
They arrived quickly.
Sun Wu heard that Shi Wengong had already charged into the rear ranks.
He had no warhorse for transportation.
It's hard to escape.
He simply brought his two swords to meet Shi Wengong.
Shi Wengong charged to the front,
Look at Sun Wu, fully armed.
They knew they'd caught a big fish.
Give a loud shout,
He then aimed his halberd straight at Sun Wu.
One of them was on horseback.
One is underground.
They fought for dozens of rounds.
However, the match ended in a draw.
